Exclusives Coming to Rocket League on Switch

Darren Phelps

Players will be hoping that RNG is on their side, however, as item unlocks in Rocket League are entirely random.

Watch the Nintendo-exclusive Battle-Cars reveal trailer below. We were given a look at three exclusive cars designed after Mario, Luigi and Samus Aran. Boasting a community of more than 35 million players, Rocket League is a high-powered hybrid of arcade-style soccer and vehicular mayhem with easy-to-understand controls and fluid, physics-driven competition. Players will still need to complete certain in-game goals to get them but there will be no paywall outside of purchasing the game.

To celebrate Rocket League's release on Nintendo Switch Psyonix has announced a few exclusives coming to the Switch's version of the game holiday 2017.

The colors of the vehicle will also change depending on what team you are representing. Which team you're on in any given match will affect which cars you can use: if you're on Blue team, you'll have access to the Luigi NSR and a tweaked Samus vehicle styled after her Varia Suit; if you're on Orange team, you'll be able to drive the Mario NSR and Samus' Gunship. "The second of the Battle-Cars is called the Samus" Gunship and is based on the hero from the Metroid franchise.

No definitive release date has been locked down for the game yet but all signs are pointing to a release some time this year.
